Vaccenic acid

Vaccenic acid is a naturally occurring trans fatty acid. It is the predominant kind of trans-fatty acid found in human milk, in the fat of ruminants, and in dairy products such as milk, butter, and yogurt.[1][2] Trans fat in human milk may depend on trans fat content in food.[3][4]

Its IUPAC name is (11E)-11-octadecenoic acid, and its lipid shorthand name is 18:1 trans-11. The name was derived from the Latin vacca (cow).[4]

Vaccenic acid was discovered in 1928 in animal fats and butter. Mammals convert it into rumenic acid, a conjugated linoleic acid,[5][6] where it shows anticarcinogenic properties.[7]

Its stereoisomer, cis-vaccenic acid, is an omega-7 fatty acid, is found in Sea Buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides) oil.[8] Its IUPAC name is (11Z)-11-octadecenoic acid, and its lipid shorthand name is 18:1 cis-11.

Health

Vaccenic acid is also found in human orbitofrontal cortex of patients with bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.[9][10]

Alkaline phosphatase inhibited 25% by vaccenic acid in osteoblasts.[11]

Oxidation of omega-7 unsaturated fatty acids on the skin surface, such as palmitoleic acid and vaccenic acid, may be the cause of the phenomenon commonly known as old person smell.[12]

When fed vaccenic acid over 16 weeks, rats exhibited in lowered total cholesterol, lowered LDL cholesterol and lower triglyceride levels.[13]
